f) Mount bottom plate
Mounting the bottom plate requires some skill. Place the top plate with its back on the table as shown in Figure 38.
Push the cylinder pins of the base plate into the plastic holders of the top plate, starting from the front or rear, all the way round. Do not push the pins completely
in the first time, but repeat the working step and press the cylinder pin only a few millimetres into the plastic each time it circulates. This prevents the component
from becoming strained!
Place an underlay, such as a cardboard box, between the component and the table so that you do not scratch the table with the screw heads! The
foam from the packaging for instance is very suitable for this purpose.
Do not use force. This can damage the servos, the base plate and the ball bearings!
You can set the correct distance between the bearing and the plastic holder using a 2.5 mm Hexagon key. The Hexagon key serves as a distance gauge, see
Figure 41.
Finally, the upper plate is screwed together with spacers. Use the M3 x 6 screws (small head diameter 5 mm) for this purpose.
Required tool:
PH2 Phillips screwdriver
Underlay e.g., cardboard box
